His little black dog is still the best looking.
The fire fox came and went in a hurry, but Xiao Xuan seemed to have put aside a worry and warmly invited Shen Wangshu to continue their dual cultivation.
The benefits of her dual cultivation with Xiao Xuan were immense. Their spiritual energy merged, allowing them to stabilize their cultivation levels in a short time and absorb a massive amount of spiritual energy. Meanwhile, Xiao Hei saw that the fire fox's cultivation level far surpassed his own, not to mention returning to the fox clan.
What would be the point of going back? It's better to show weakness to the Celestial Fox than to the Red Fox.
Because of the sudden emergence of the new Fox King, the demon race has become stable again.
However, what surprised Shen Wangshu was the faint whisper of rumors circulating from the demonic path. The most prominent figure in the demonic path in the past century was a disciple named Yue Xizhi. This young man, disgraced and expelled from the righteous path, had joined the demonic sect under the patronage of its leader. Not only had he broken through to the Nascent Soul stage and achieved the half-step Mahayana realm in just a few years, but he had even defeated the demonic sect leader, who had been repeatedly injured in recent years, after achieving great mastery of his cultivation.
This Demon Sect Master was indeed a remarkable figure. Upon learning that he had a successor, he laughed three times and passed away peacefully in his own dojo.
Yue Xizhi took over the power of the Demon Sect leader and became the new Demon Sect leader.
His demonic power was awe-inspiring, and he was even more ruthless than the previous sect leader. In a short period of time, he destroyed several sects that did not obey him and integrated the demonic path.
Then he led the demonic cultivators and started a war against the righteous path.
Among the righteous cultivators, there were quite a few Nascent Soul cultivators, who were suitable to fight against the demonic Nascent Soul cultivators, but they were no match for Yue Xizhi. After killing several righteous Nascent Soul cultivators, Yue Xizhi brazenly unleashed his demonic power upon the demon race.
He seemed to feel no pressure in simultaneously suppressing both the righteous path and the demon race, and for a time, the demon race's power retreated once again. When Shen Wangshu learned of this, she was begged by righteous cultivators. Before Xiao Xuan lay a scarred, fiery red fox. Shen Wangshu was not a saint, yet she still could not bear to see the world's creatures slaughtered because of Yue Xizhi.
The land was covered in red water, and blood flowed like rivers. It turned out that she still couldn't be so heartless as to turn a blind eye to all of this.
What surprised her even more was that when she found Yue Xizhi, she discovered something even more astonishing than Yue Xizhi's rapid advancement.
"It's you?!" she said in surprise.
The handsome young man standing before him was indeed Yue Xizhi, yet he was not him.
Inside, it turned out to be the primordial spirit of the Demon Sect Master.
"I see." Shen Wangshu suddenly realized, and gave the Demon Sect Master a faint, cold smile.
She finally understood why the Demon Sect Master had always treated Yue Xizhi differently; it turned out that he had long coveted Yue Xizhi's extraordinary body and wanted to possess it.
The Demon Sect Master's body was injured years ago and must be severely damaged. As a demonic cultivator, he not only felt no psychological pressure regarding possession, but more importantly, he had his own methods to prevent his cultivation level from falling after possession. With Yue Xizhi's innate talent and the Demon Sect Master's years of enlightenment, there was truly hope for reaching a higher realm. She couldn't help but think of what Yue Xizhi's fate would have been in her previous life.
Back then, he addressed the Demon Sect Master as his father-in-law.
I wonder if the old man has asked his son-in-law if he has taken his coveted body.
The Demon Sect Master laughed heartily, using Yue Xizhi's face. He was full of vigor and vitality, still in his prime, far surpassing his former self.
With a casual grab, he unleashed a raging inferno, filling half the sky with billowing black flames.
With a casual stroke of his sword, Shen Wangshu shattered the illusion, clearing the sky back into its clear light.
"You've advanced too." The Demon Sect Master looked at the woman who was always opposing him with a gloomy expression.
If he hadn't made a fatal mistake, he could have killed Shen Wangshu at Guangmingzong that day, extracted her soul, and annihilated her completely.
However, this was not the time for idle chatter. A fox howl echoed from afar, and a nine-tailed celestial fox unfurled its enormous body. Its nine long tails swept countless demonic cultivators down from the sky. With a single claw, it seemed capable of tearing the heavens and earth apart, tightly protecting the demon race behind it.
Shen Wangshu glanced at it with a smile, then turned his gaze back to the Demon Sect Master. The two of them flew towards the higher sky at the same time. In the blink of an eye, endless frost and demonic energy rolled across the sky, with sharp screechs echoing. The battle between the two high-level cultivators made the whole world tremble.
Heaven and earth collapsed, and mountains and rivers tilted.
All the cultivators looked up, watching the fierce battle with bated breath.
Once Shen Wangshu is defeated, Yue Xizhi's demonic power will likely become even more difficult to suppress.
Shen Wangshu had never experienced such an evenly matched battle before, and he felt his spiritual energy slowly dissipating.
Her body was tinged with black by demonic energy, while the handsome young man, covered in blood and now only had one arm and one leg left, looked at her with a strange expression.
"I can't beat you, Lingxiao. With me in this world, why do you also exist?" He took a step back and said softly.
Shen Wangshu swung his sword again, aiming to slash at him.
A strange smile appeared on the young man's face.
“In the deepest part of Yue Xizhi’s memory, there is actually your shadow.” He didn’t care at all that he had been reduced to a human stump by Shen Wangshu. He licked his lips excitedly and said, “I was defeated by you, but I won’t let you be proud. Since Yue Xizhi likes you, then you go down and accompany him. Consider it my way of repaying you!” He laughed loudly twice, and as Shen Wangshu’s expression changed drastically, he raised his aura higher and higher. A pitch-black nascent soul emerged from his body, absorbing endless spiritual energy and beginning to expand.
